EDIT: The Official Hrwiki get-together is Trimus, on the AMI side. Cool?

EDIT: Now for the grand List of names so far:
Susan's name is homsar
extremejon09's name is extremejon09
Exhibit A's name is Exhibit
Santa Zeno's name is SimonZeno

Whoa

It's an MMORPG, but instead of that crappy-overused Medevil System that's been used since the beggining of time, This one is different. It's played like a Futuristic Air dogfight game. And it's Free. You have no excuse to miss this awesome innovativeness.

Some complaints: So far, it's not very popular, so the citys feel rather barren. And when you disembark your ship you have to akwardly click to move instead of useing keys. And the RPG systems feel...Weird and alein. NEW even. Like instead of Partys, you have "Formations", and so far it makes no sense to me.

Seriously, Play it, you'll love it.

Since this game if VERY confuseing when you start out, I decided to make...

Extremejon's Mini-guide for Beginers

-[s]First and most importantly, If you leave the game before you reach Level 6, your Character will be deleated. I'm not sure why they chose to do this, or why they (as far as I know) don't mention it anywhere. Don't worry, reaching level 6 is effortless. Just do a few missions. (Note: I'm not sure if this is comepletely true. I once lost my character when I left before Lv6, and when I made another a high level-guy told me this)
[/s] I was wrong.

-If you learn the hotkeys, things will go alot smoother. Press F1 to view the controls.

-Most menus can only be accessed when you bring your ship to a comeplete stop (Press B, then enter)

-When you face toward an enemy, you will auto-lock onto it. If you don't want to lock onto that particular enemy, press shift to break off the lock.

-If you want to trade/Invite someone to party/Duel with someone, Hold ALT and left click on them to open up the mini-Menu.

-The music in this game is totally Kickin', but if you can think of something better, drop some MP3s into the Music folder, and you can play them useing the Music tab In game.

-Yes, there is voice Chat.

-You may be confused as to why it is that whenever you land in a city, a shop window pops up. This is the Re-Supply window. You can Repair damage/Refill Ammo/Fill up Fuel Etc etc. It is really cheap, so don't, worry about the cost. Just click the "Select All" button and buy away.

Bah, you guys are crazy. This is by far the best MMORPG I've ever played. And I've Played WoW and FFXI. Heck, it's my favortie RPG in general I've played in awhile, it's not awesome you run into such an awesome genre blend.

Well, for those of you that have the awesome-levels to play, I'm with the AMI nation, in case you want to play with me.

Unfortunatley, I dont think you can play with people unless your on the same server. And I belive your characters only exist on one of them(could be wrong). Anyways, Im Homsar in the Trimus (something like that) server. Im a lvl 9 B Gear. Oh, and there is a friends list, I just dont know who to do it.

[s]Actually, I'm pretty sure you can chose what server you want to go to whenever you log in.

Ok, It's decided, HRwikians will Go to Trimus server, and join the AMI nation so we can play together, aggred?[/s]

Nope, you can have 3 characters for every Server. Ok, How about this. The Official Hrwiki get-together is Trimus, on the AMI side. Cool?

Nope, I just tried, when you join another server you have no characters. Your characters stay were you made them.
Anyways, I will join AMI, we will have to make a brigadge.

It looks cool, but I don't really want to get addicted right before school starts. I also don't want to download almost 1 gig. I have way more than enough room, but I dunno.

Uh... I kind of assume that one's has a basic MMORPG setup, I didn't really see anything on it about it haveing an actiony system.

Space Cowboy feels like Star Fox, but with MMORPG elements. And besides, IT'S FREE!

Mmmm... gear.

Anyways, I'm thinking about downloading it, but I don't really wanna get sucked into anymroe things. Especially since school is going to start up pretty soon. I might try it, though, I've been getting better at not getting sucked into things.

You can walk around in towns.

You level up by killing things, Like all RPGs.

But in this one you level up REALLY quickly. And you never run out of quests to do.

I finally got it to work. I'm an A-Gear, which is pretty cool because I'm essentially a flying tank. Awesome.

Name is SimonZeno. I'm not very far yet...
